Nowadays, traveling is becoming a part of a lifestyle. People are traveling from one city to another and also from one country to another for various purposes. Humans are traveling via airplanes, ships, trains, buses, cars and many more options are available. All vehicle needs maintenance, for better performance and to avoid disturbances.

Maintenances are of three types – predictive, preventive and reactive. Out of the three, most of the airline companies focus on predictive maintenance. Predictive maintenance is done to prevent the occurrence of the failure and also to minimize the hours lost to support. The cost of an airplane is very high, so regular maintenance is conducted by every airline company to reduce the risk factor of any failure, and that is known as predictive airplane maintenance. The method of predictive airplane maintenance is accepted by many companies around the world, because of its results and easy techniques.

Predictive airplane maintenancecan be conducted in many easy techniques, such as vibration analysis, oil analysis, equipment observation and, thermal imaging, which are also known as condition-based maintenance. Condition-based maintenance (CBM) is a maintenance strategy that monitors the actual condition of the airplane to decide the part for maintenance purpose. The maintenance should be done after specific indications from condition-based maintenance. Although, the growth of the predictive airplane maintenance market is at its peak due to various reasons, such as its easy technique and also due to it being cost effective.

Global Predictive Airplane Maintenance Market: Drivers and Challenges

Drivers

For business, holidays, get-togethers and many other reasons, the people around the world travel via airplane to save time. People select airplane as an option for rapid transportation. Nowadays, for most of the airline companies, delays and cancellation of flights are expensive problems. To rectify these problems, the companies are spending much more revenue in R&D departments. For maintenance purposes, many companies are developing sensors to amend the parts of an aircraft. The primary factors, which are driving the predictive airplane maintenance market are delays and cancellation problems of flights. Many companies are developing innovative technologies and solutions to offer better maintenance, which is resulting into an increasing demand for predictive airplane maintenance from past few years.

Challenges

As the predictive airplane maintenance is used widely for in-time support, the airline companies are facing problems with typical parts of an airplane. Because industrial maintenance software platforms, sensors, and operations are currently highly fractured. Moreover, the connectivity of humans and automated machines in maintenances are the factors which may hamper the growth of the predictive airplane maintenance market in future.
